Should know more next week, I think their plan is to offer a drive in/drive out deal.what sort of gains could we expect from the AMD conversion and rough guide to cost's would be nice.

To a point yes....but bhp without torque is daft (and visa versa).No, we need more BHP. Torque is only good with load, once off load power is required. Diesels have great torque but doesn't make them quick.
With a light car like the VX I'm looking for more BHP.

That sounds a bit worrying for us turbo owners Could you ask him to post exactly what happened, where the object came from? just in case it's a problem with the turbo installation......when he first took delivery of his demonstrator he was runine existing it in when some metal object managed to get into his turbo unit.....blew the bloddy thing up!
cheers

That sounds like a pretty good set-up Thorney. Keep me posted on the charge cooler and oil cooler options. I'm keen to sort out the engine bay temperatures, along with brake and suspension upgrades, before going for big power/torque gains. The car already makes some interesting clicking and gurgling noises when it's cooling down after a quick blast round the trackI should be the position to announce the AMD conversion we're working on too. Current plan is a Miltek system, filter of some kind (not decided which one yet) an AMD re-map, charge cooler and larger oil cooler.
